Chasing After You |Seongjoong|

*4*

Everyone had gathered in the Rising Suns' garage since morning. The previous night, they had agreed to have fun. But before that, they had to do some fine-tuning to their cars. And there were more cars than usual. To be exact, nine in total. They have worked on them since early morning. Even tho some of the guys were a little hung over. Especially, Hongjoong, who was lying on the sofa. He had the worst hungover among them all. And the reason? All of them encouraged him to drink and forget about his broken heart.

"Mate, are ya hanging there?" Bang Chan chirped.

"Someone kill me," Hongjoong groaned, the sound a raw, brutal expulsion of misery.

"Come on, mate! I've got what ya need," Chan chirped. His Aussie accent slipped while he spoke.

Hongjoong raised his heavy head, giving a bloodshot stare to his friend. Chan opened the little glass bottle and gave it to his friend. Personally, the Aussie couldn't stand the strong medicinal smell of that drink. Even more, he couldn't stand the earthy herb flavour of it. So he could only watch with slight repulsion how Hongjoong drank it slowly. Despite being best friends since high school, Chan couldn't get used to some things. But he was there to help his bestie.

"Reckon ya can join us when ya feel better, mate," Chan said.

"Chan-ah, you switched to English again," Hongjoong complained. "You know I can't understand your weird accent."

"Sorry, mate," Chan giggled with a tiny bit of embarrassment, hiding his voice.

Chan left Hongjoong to rest some more until the medicinal drink took action. The Aussie man returned to Mingi and Changbin, who were working on the GT-R. They were arguing about something related to the tyres. Once again, Chan had to deal with those two. Despite being friends, they could never, have a conversation without arguing a little.

Meanwhile, on the other side of the garage, Yunho was taking care of the youngest in their current group. Both boys looked up to Yunho with lots of respect and viewed him as an older brother and teacher. The two boys watched Yunho with sparkling eyes as he gave them advice about better cornering. His bright and bubbly personality made him a great teacher to them.

Around the time Hongjoong joined them, Minho arrived. That time, they were working on Hyunsuk's Sil80, and the three leaders indulged in their work. So, Minho couldn't speak with his leader at the moment, instead, he went to his teammate Changbin. Once again, Changbin and Mingi had a polite disagreement over something ridiculous. The moment they saw Minho, both asked him for his opinion. Minho gave it a thought and discarded both of their sides. After all, the three men had different styles. The argument was discarded due to no common ground. Minho then used the chance to speak with Mingi about the car tuning of his team and their styles, using the excuse of experience exchange. Mingi was glad to help. And everyone knew that the tall, goofy man had loose lips. The double agent Lee, also knew it and used the chance.

Once Minho had collected enough information, he went to Hongjoong. The captain of Rising Suns was standing by Hyunsuk, covered in dirt, with a satisfied look on his face. Getting dirty was unavoidable when working on a car.

"Hongjoong-ah, can I use your computer?" Minho asked.

"Sure," Joong smiled, his mood was a lot better than earlier. "It's back in the office."

The captain pointed towards a door in the back. Minho thanked him and went to the office. Just as Hongjoong said, there was a computer. Minho took the chance to check if Joong had any files about their cars and modifications done on them. Of course, there were such files. The double agent took the chance and attached the files to his report email. Then, he sent it to Seonghwa and quickly signed out of his account. Minho felt a little guilty about doing this dirty job. But he had already sent the report.
